Tom Brady's wife fires back after her post-Super Bowl parenting was criticized
Losing a Super Bowl is always devastating for a player, but some of the stuff New England quarterback Tom Brady — and his family — have had to deal with the past few weeks is just foolish.
First, was the idiotic Boston sports radio host who called Brady’s daughter an “annoying little pissant.”
Then came the ridiculous story about how Brady’s son kissed him on the lips.
Yet Brady seemed to put it all behind him and set a Super Bowl record Sunday with 505 passing yards and three touchdowns.
But what do fans remember? He couldn’t catch a pass, and then fumbled after being sacked late in the game.
Now the target is Brady’s wife, Gisele Bundchen.
She had the audacity to try and comfort her children after a devastating loss for her husband.

Their daughter cried, “The Eagles won the Super Bowl.’’
Gisele responded, “Just this time. Daddy won five times. They never won before.
“Sometimes you have to let other people win,’’ she said. “We have to share. Sharing is caring.’’
Innocent enough, considering mom was talking to a 5-year old.
But of course, this being the supermodel married to the star quarterback of the team America loves to hate, somehow this became a thing on social media.
Wednesday, Bundchen apologized for her words, which were being misconstrued as a slam on the Eagles.
Just to be clear. No one “let” anyone win. People win because of their own merit. Tired of people twisting my words to create drama that doesn’t exist!

She tweeted a clarification, saying, “Just to be clear. No one ‘let’ anyone win. People win because of their own merit. Tired of people twisting my words to create drama that doesn’t exist.”
To be fair, Gisele does have a history of making snide comments after New England Super Bowl losses.
After the Patriots lost to the Giants in 2012, she was caught on video criticizing former Patriots receiver Wes Welker, who had dropped a critical pass. “My husband can not f—— throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time,” Bundchen said. “I can’t believe they dropped the ball so many times.”
This year, however, it’s hard to actually criticize a mother comforting her children.
Unless her husband is on the Patriots, apparently.
